Makes you wonder why only 7500lb towing. I'm pretty sure they didn't change the casting process for this version, and 300HP is still plenty adequate. Also ~500lb weight reduction doesn't explain it either. Highly suspect plain marketing...

So it looks like its just open bed unless you pay for the soft tonneau? I dont think you can upgrade to the hard.

Wish there was a picture of the bed, the current bed is one of the worst parts of the current truck, ability for gravel, dirt, etc to fall through the cracks and pile up by the compressor is a bummer, glad new owners will get more of a work truck bed.

Yup and electrek stole the words out my mouth. Basically this variant will likely push those on the fence to opt for the premium features


Electrek’s Take
I might be wrong, but I would assume that the previously announced $61,000 Cybertruck is not going to happen. The Cybertruck is likely proving to be too low-volume to warrant producing different sizes of battery packs.

However, this version might be just to make the $80,000 Cybertruck look better.

It’s not to lose the AWD, the tonneau, the adaptive suspension, and even the bed outlets for $10,000.

That's marketing. You offer 3 versions. Top trim is too much money, bottom trim is missing too many features, they will buy the middle one.

It’s nice that the single motor has a rear locker. Just like the old Tacoma prerunners.


can’t wait to blow the doors off single motor CT’s!

Any word about keeping the rear wheel steering? That has to be pricy mechanicals.

Disappointed at the lack of features that make the cybertruck a cybertruck for that price. Too many features are missing. I have been a reservation holder since 2019 and I guess I will still be waiting since I want the AWD with the cyberwheels at a lower price.

Higher range, lower maintenance and operating costs should bring fleet buyers into this model. Then there's all that sweet, sweet, depreciation and potential clean vehicle tax credits, both state and federal.
Lots of F150's are fleet, which helped make it the #1 seller for decades.

Fleet f150s are around $33k, and ford usually has a 7500 off discount for fleet. At that price, gas savings just doesn’t cover it yet. That’s roughly 10,000 gallons in fuel price difference.

Still has 4 wheel steering, right?

Same here I will admit it’s only been maybe 2 weeks but I still have no buyers remorse for pulling the trigger on my foundation series I took delivery of. I wasn’t prepared to pay 100k plus but in the end I was happy

I don’t see anything about it being removed. Due to the length of the truck it honestly needs 4 way steering. So I’m sure it’ll stay

Looks like they lost me as a CT buyer.

For $60k bottom of the line CT doesn't make sense especially with all the things they took out and only 3 miles range improvement? I don't see too many people buying this model. This is not going to help their sales, maybe help the AWD. Maybe $55K, they will have some sales.

I know 3 others that pre-order the CT. None of us are order a CT. We all have MY and/or M3. So that should said something about the CT and pricing of the CT. I am looking at the R1T now. Is just so sad.

Suspension. No adaptive air, and springs have a limit, harder springs equal worse ride, softer springs means worse towing capacity.

Other things worth noting:

• Has different wheels
• Has fewer speakers (15 speakers + 4 subs vs 7 speakers + 2 subs)
• Doesn't have HEPA filter
• Textile seats (only has front heated seats)
• No rear screen

So it HAS(?) rear steer.....
